The massive Bear Landing water park makes a big splash, but the hotel's world-class amenities also stand out. A peaceful alternative to gleeful splashing can be found within the tranquil Aveda Concept Spa. For the younger set, Scooops Kid Spa serves up whimsical ice cream-themed manicures and pedicures. Other family-fun activities include a visit to the 100-game Northern Lights arcade, dinner at a cafe with private dining tents and enjoying story time in front of the lobby's fieldstone fireplace.
